Being consistent in how we talk and what we teach to our children takes a lot of thoughtfulness, planning, and grit. You’re going to get it wrong sometimes and that’s okay!⠀
.⠀
When you mess up, try saying to your children something like, “I need to do that again. I didn’t want to say that.”⠀
.⠀
Or possibly say, “I can’t keep that promise or punishment I just said. I said that out of anger. I’m going to try my reaction again with and find another way to address your actions.”⠀
.⠀
Consistency is not rigidity or perfection. It takes practice. In fact, making mistakes and asking for forgiveness teaches children what real relationships look like and is an important part of your child’s development.⠀

Depression symptoms from a loss of any kind can come in the form of grief. Grief, not just physical death, can come as a result of the loss of a 2 parent home through divorce, moving to a new town, transitions such as a new school or losing a friend group etc… Loss can cause short to long term depressive symptoms. An extensive treatment plan could include getting outside help to learn ways to deal with feelings and exploring helpful medications.⠀

Unexplained depression can often present when a child is holding a secret of abuse. Abuse can be physical, emotional, spiritual, or sexual (bullying can fall under emotional abuse). Similarly, prolonged pain from a traumatic event can weigh heavily on a child and cause depressive symptoms as well. For many children, learning coping skills along with problem solving skills in a safe environment can begin to promote a life-giving change. This change over time may be just enough to lift their “black cloud” of depression.⠀
